 OOKS as sources of knowl- CV- 
 edge or of pleasure, worthy 
 of fine editions and beauti- 
 ful bindings this is the 
 motif of the following 
 pages. The great histories, 
 memoirs, classics of prose 
 and verse, many in the great and best edi- 
 tions, all in creditable form, are here briefly 
 mentioned and passed in review. Some few 
 rare or antiquarian volumes, first editions 
 and purely collector's works there are, but 
 more are represented those substantial works 
 of general interest, valuable additions to 
 one's library and many dainty volumes, 
 with exquisite illustrations and beautiful 
 bindings, suggest the holiday times. 
 
 It will be understood that this catalogue 
 is not intended to represent our stock in any 
 complete sense, our miscellaneous collection 
 not being touched in the least, and already 
 many fine and desirable works are in trans- 
 portation that were secured too late to be 
 included.

Notes by Mr. L. Manouk relative to 
 
 n (Armenian (Manuscript (gooft of 
 
 Consisting of 466 pages, on classic parchment, size 9^ 
 inches, supposed to have been executed 
 prior to 1000 A. D. 
 
 IN reference to this book, I will first try to give a period in Armenian 
 history which will enable the reader to form some idea of its 
 antiquity and value as a manuscript in connection with Christ 
 It is a fact that the Armenians were the first nationality to embrace 
 Christianity during Christ's life. History as well as the New Testament 
 gives ample proof for the above statement. During Christ's life the 
 Armenian king, Apgar, falls sick, and every effort to cure him fails. 
 One night he dreams that the only way for cure is to believe in the 
 teachings of Christ. He therefore sends word to Christ that he believes 
 that the only cure for him is through Him, but is unable to see and 
 touch His almighty hand, as he lies sick in bed. After receiving the 
 word Christ sends his Tateos disciple and cures him. After his recovery 
 the king makes a proclamation throughout Armenia and the neighbor- 
 ing nations to embrace Christianity. It is thus that the Armenians 
 become Christian as a whole nationality. The book itself is a master- 
 piece both in ecclesiastic literature and art of those olden times. One 
 need not know or speak the language to behold the evenness, accuracy 
 and gracefulness of the writing which has probably taken half the life- 
 time of a monk to produce such a work. It was the custom of the 
 Armenian monks, in about 1000 A. D., to devote or give their time, 
 according to their talents, to some service to God. It is to this end 
 that the artist monk has produced this book, which we may call a mas- 
 terpiece in this rare line. I say this because I admit that there are two 
 or three copies of similar books in a few national libraries in Europe, of 
 which I have personally seen the one in Paris (Bibliothique National), 
 but even an ordinary lover of art could see the superiority of this copy. 
 In the year 1700 A. D. a certain Manoog Agha, then head of the 
 Armenian church in Smyrna, goes to Jerusalem to visit the head patri- 
 arch of his church. There, after receiving the honors due to his posi- 
 tion, he is presented with the present book and a painting on copper ; 
 the latter, which was the work of a celebrated Italian artist, being dark, 
 does not suit his uncultivated taste, so he orders a new and bright 
 painting of some saints to be painted on the back of it. After the death 
 of said Manoog the picture falls into more fortunate hands, that sees 
 the fineness of the dark figure of Christ, which has been slightly soiled, 
 and after the necessary treatment brings to light, as previously men- 
 tioned, the work of a most celebrated Italian artist. 
 
I give this little anecdote of the painting to illustrate to what 
 extent this rare manuscript was considered even in those early days. In 
 regard to the binding of the book, I will say that it is comparatively 
 new to the manuscript itself. This can be readily seen in examining 
 the leather and other parts of the binding, and moreover with a small 
 part of the book (consisting of about half a dozen pages) which has 
 been inserted either to fill a missing space or to add a new part to the 
 book. This small space which I referred to bears also testimony of 
 its recentness of the binding, as the papers used bear the mark of an 
 early Italian paper factory. Another proof of the antiquity of the book 
 is well illustrated in some of the pictures and ornaments of the book. 
 For instance, on the first page, opposite the first picture of David, you 
 will see a small piece of art, consisting of the commencement of a cer- 
 tain phrase : the characters in this are in the form of birds' heads and 
 fishes' tails, a specimen so freely used in early Persian and Hindoo art. 
 You will find these ornaments of art more or less nearly on every page, 
 which makes this book interesting to every leaf of fine parchment. 
 
 I will here describe how the Armenians come to possess such fine 
 art in reference to their Christian church. It is through the fact that 
 their church has been the sole and only element to keep their unity 
 and existence. From their earliest days of their history we will notice 
 that their kingdom has been a series of falls and ups, sometimes raided 
 by Persians and nearly wiped out of existence, and other times oppos- 
 ing the powerful Kingdom of Rome. Their form of government has 
 so often changed that, were it not to the strong belief of their church, 
 it would be hard to trace a nation so oppressed to this very day ; but 
 as I aforesaid, through their church, they come to the present era as a 
 nation, having preserved their religion, history and traditions, so it is 
 not surprising to hear about the oppression of Armenians in Asia 
 Minor, the massacres, outrages and other cruelties perpetrated by the 
 Turks, merely on account of their Christian belief and their persistence 
 not to abandon their church. L. H. MANOUK.

 The appearance of Baskerville's publications gave rise to no little con- 
 temporary controversy. Yet it is difficult to understand the grounds of any 
 adverse criticism. As regards type, there is very little to choose between 
 Caslon's Roman and that of Baskerville, while the Italic of Baskerville 
 was unquestionably the most beautiful type that had ever been seen in Eng- 
 land. But there are also other features of excellence. His books are sim- 
 plicity itself, but printed with deep, wide margins and spaced with the very 
 best effect.
